I've never, ever been approached my so many strangers as I have been since I've had sweet pea. People will walk across a store to see her. My mom and I decided that the top three questions that I'm asked are:
1. Where did she get that red hair? (My hair is reddish brown, but not red like hers)
2. How old is she?
3. Is she your first?
I've actually spent some time looking up the genetics of red hair in the hopes that I could come up with an accurate, succinct answer to the first question, but I'm still not sure how to answer it. I don't want to sound like a smart ass but I don't want to launch into a long explanation. So I usually just say that it's a mystery.
I don't know how everyone knows or why they assume that she is my first. Maybe just because I don't have another kid in tow. I'm definitely old enough to have had a slew of kids by now. Perhaps it's the sleepy, half-stunned expression.
